A love letter to the Italian coast, the effortlessly inviting Riva Mare embraces a vibrant, beach club spirit – lively, joyful, and deeply rooted in la vita dolce. While Indaco celebrates the depth and soul of Italian tradition, this concept leans into a lighter, brighter, unmistakably seafood-forward coastal perspective.

The menu celebrates coastal Italian cooking with a focus on fresh, local seafood, crudos, whole roasted fish, housemade pestos, and rich olive oils with unfussy, intentional preparations that allow ingredients to shine. Wood-fired dishes and seasonal accompaniments round out a menu inspired by the coastal land and surrounding sea. Designed to feel like a timeless seaside retreat with an unmistakable energy, Riva Mare blends open kitchens, warm woods, relaxed outdoor spaces, and an atmosphere that feels both elevated and fun.
